For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).
Righteousness is the nature of God that reveals His rightness—His ability to be right, only and always right. It’s His equity in judgment, His fairness to anyone and everyone. This is why righteousness belongs to God alone; no man by his own effort can attain it.
This was the dilemma: God gave the Law, but man couldn’t keep it, not because the Law was wrong but because man by sin had lost the ability to fulfil it. How then could man relate with a God who demands absolute righteousness?
This is why the Lord Jesus came. He knew we could never attain righteousness by ourselves; it was impossible. So, He came to give us His life and nature. When you received Christ, you received the very life of God. Just as you were born into this world with human life, you were born again with the life and nature of Christ.
This new life came with a gift—righteousness. This isn’t human righteousness or righteousness by works; it’s the righteousness of God. It’s given, imparted, or bestowed. You don’t work for it; you receive it. This righteousness produces something extraordinary in you. It gives you the ability to live right, to do right, and to walk in God’s will.
More than that, it gives you boldness before God. You can stand in His presence without inferiority, without guilt, and without condemnation. This is your reality now that you’re born again. You’re not trying to become righteous; you’ve been made righteous. You don’t struggle to please God; you live out His nature that’s within you. This is the life of righteousness: living in dominion, with confidence, and in fellowship with the Father. Hallelujah!
